Shipping Wall Decor from Monterrey to Portland via Ground Freight

Shipping household furniture and home accessories necessitates careful preparation. You should Disassemble removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then protect each component separately. Use Corner protectors on table tops, cabinets, and Mirrors, then place items in reinforced boxes with secure internal cushioning. Finally, Label all packages as “Handle with Care” and indicate the top orientation.

Large or heavy Mirrors are usually more appropriate for freight services than standard parcel, because freight supports palletization and stable handling. For small, well-padded decorative items under parcel size limits, You can use parcel carriers, but You should add double-boxing and insure for full value. Oversized Mirrors Should be crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive Furniture and decorative items, exporters should use poly sheeting around each boxed or crated item, then add moisture absorbers inside the packaging. In ocean containers, Avoid pallets directly against steel walls; instead, Leave a small air gap and use humidity absorbers hung from lashing points. Choose Dry, indoor loading areas so Furniture sets are not exposed to rain during loading.

International shipments of high-value Furniture sets and home accessories typically call for a full commercial invoice, packing list, and customs classification for each product type. You should clearly describe items (for example, “wooden furniture,” “glass mirrors,” “metal wall decor”) and state materials to avoid customs delays. For designer or branded Furnishings, confirm if any Trademark documentation or Certificates of origin are required by the destination country.

Standard carrier liability for Furniture and home accessories is usually based on weight, which often is lower than the actual value of designer pieces, artistic decorative items, or premium home decoration items. We recommend purchasing Separate cargo insurance for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy protects against breakage and moisture damage. This Helps ensure you can Recover the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.
